These essays bring together the basic facts concerning the role of the American Negro in important epochs of his country’s history. They chronicle his active participation in the War of Independence, in the Abolitionist movement and in the Civil War, and record the long line of slave revolts from the very inception of this brutal system in the sixteenth century to the eve of the Civil War. This book is an important contribution to an understanding of the dynamic history of the American Negro.
